One of the most helpful (and easiest) things you can do to help your baby take a bottle more comfortably is changing the nipple shape of the bottle that you are using! There’s so many popular bottles on the market that are made with a small bass and very prominent nipple. Many babies take this type of a bottle without any issues at all, but there are some who struggle with this which makes the bottle feeding experience for them not as enjoyable as it could be. I always recommend a wide neck bottle with a gradual slope to all of my clients, not just for those who are struggling with the bottle! There are many reasons why I love this type of a nipple including: 🍼 helps promote a deeper latch similar to at the breast 🍼 the gradual slope makes the nipple a little bit more sturdy, which means that it is easier for baby to latch onto. A more prominent nipple can be frustrating for a baby because it often will fold over on itself as they are trying to latch 🍼 these nipples can make it easier for babies who have mild tongue or lip ties that may not need to be corrected but who are still having issues getting that perfect latch Many babies do great feeding with this type of bottle/nipple but it’s always important to keep in mind that each and every baby is different and have their own preferences! There are MANY bottles on the market so use the bottle that works best for your baby! Questions?! Comment below!
